It's been quite some time since SRWa was announced with a 90% completed script accompanying it. In addition, it's been quite some time since we all saw the video of aG's new title screen and hacked demo sequence.

Has a problem arisen with script translation and/or insertion, or are other projects in the way?

I'm aware of Lord of Elemental's prominence in what counts as recent history, as well as a basic law of building anticipation in a series being to start with the more dated projects, but when something is ready, it's ready.

I now submit myself for merciless namecalling.

The power of love is the most chaotic and destructive force in the known universe.

Obviously, Gid is taking the extra time to up graphics up to @3 levels, add in every mecha series ever created (including American releases), and create a second mode where you play ZoE styles as any mech with any pilot.

Hmn...last tiem I bugged him for scripts for @2 and @3 (among other things), I can play and finish them on emulator so I can work on them now, he said that Masoukishin will be focused, but also 4 and EX scripts are beign reviwed.Gods know when @ and @g will be seriously worked on for release, probably after the snes ones are finished.Also, @'s scripts were fully translated EXCEPT the battle texts (I really suck at them and he didn't give me them either), and also there were some missing texts that Lakmir didn't rip out when I translated at least.

I am not sure about @g, I didn't work on it (and I think it is still on translation), but on @, I took a bit less than 1 year, and that was with planty of time wasted (I think the project was cursed), as there were 2 months I didn't have the time to work on it and when I finally could, my motherboard burned up, so that made more 2 months that I wasn't able to work on it.

I wouldn't worry too much about @2's script since it seems that a measurable portion of it has shown up translated (and quite well translated) on Gamefaqs, though I imagine that there's still much that hasn't been translated. I will salute you for attempting to translate @3 as that looks humanly impossible.

I also can't help but wonder if Gid needs to finish EX since Studiollama is currently working on the PSX version (though Gid is probably far ahead of them).

Gid to my knowledge is not the type to leave something partially finished even if someone else doing relatively the same thing. the PSX version probably has some things that the original doesn't have so he most likely will finish EX for the SNES.

Personally, i would prefer the origonal run (SRW 2, 3, EX, 4, LoE) gets finished first, but any release would be welcome.The scary thing is we could see 3 or 4 of those done within the year (knocks on wood :D )

For my own part, I'd rather like to see the Alpha games translated prior to 4 and EX. SRWG can't come soon enough since it plays so differently to every other SRW game (and it finally explains Masaki's backstory so it's of interest for anyone into the OG games), but, well... Alpha and Alpha Gaiden are flat-out better games than 4 and EX. That's the entire point of the Alpha games; they were meant to substantially improve on every aspect of SRW compared to the original series. I don't have a ton of interest in the earlier games simply because I know the Alpha series is quantifiably a better play experience.

I'd also welcome any release, but I really would rather see the emphasis be placed on Gaiden and the Alpha games.

Gaiden (Finally FINALLY, Masaki Andoh can have his full story, which works in every game he's in, told to us in english, sides it looks badass)Alpha (Seem's very interesting, loads of fun)Alpha Gaiden (Considered perfect by people, i wanna see the fuss)Ex (Andoh)4 (since it became Non-Canon compared to F and F Final, i dont care for it to much)

but thats just me, i'm a patient man, i'm still waiting for my Wii Birthday present to get in, my birthday was in September... last year... my patience is high
